Particulate Scale Numerical Investigation on the Compaction of TiC-316L Composite Powders

Figure 2

Variation of relative density with compaction pressure for TiC-316L composites with (a) different particle size ratios when TiC% = 10 wt.%, (b) various TiC contents when R_316L/R_TiC = 1, and (c) fitting of the simulation results in (a) and (b) with Heckel equation.
